in the united states of america, on september 25 , the session of the un general assembly begins there, and it is within the framework of this un general assembly that zelensky hopes to meet with biden and present him with a victory plan, as zelensky says, this victory plan is already more than 90% ready. however, what will this plan be, rather meagerly for now? says zelensky, but let's listen to what he said in yesterday's video address to ukrainians. and in various formats of the meeting on the preparation of our ukrainian victory plan, the real filling of all points, military content, political, diplomatic, economic, more than 90% of everything is written out, and in the complex this package can ensure the correct development of the situation. not

only for ukraine, but also for everyone in the world who values ​​international law. mr. oleksandr, this is the information that is in the public space, and about what zelensky says, that the basis will be laid, and the main bet in this plan of victory will be laid on the united states of america, and that is, it is completely unclear, so far, if the united the states of america will not want this... part of theirs there to carry out this victory plan, it is not clear whether there will be a victory plan then, well, relatively speaking, whether the current team has a plan b in addition to plan a, well, that is, if the americans say, listen, this victory plan does not suit us, in we have our own vision of how the russian-ukrainian war should end, and this vision is not the same as that of zelenskyi and his team, you ... what will happen if suddenly this victory plan

turns out not to be what washington sees? you know, the program of at least our strategic goals, the strategic goals of the united states, they completely coincide, this is the survival of the ukrainian nation, the ukrainian state, sovereign, independent, and precisely because of this , even in the 22nd or the beginning of the 23rd year, president biden talked about this and said that ukraine won a strategic victory and... others goals , such as the victory of ukraine and the fact that we should liberate all illegally occupied, annexed territories, do not coincide here, since the americans want to avoid an escalation with the russian federation, and otherwise the collapse of the putin regime, aka the russian federation, and of course, what zelensky needs to show some diplomacy so that we can pack our desires and resources that we have, primarily human, into those. we believe that this is an option for

our american partners, if the americans do not agree with the plan, it does not mean that they will stop supplying us with weapons, providing other types of assistance, because then it would be against their national interests and this strategy, which joseph biden actually approved in 22 year, and of course, then we will have to rely on our own strength and our european partners, but... but of course this is a problematic thing, because the europeans, unfortunately, do not have such resources, first of all, i mean industrial resources, the ability to produce weapons, equipment, in any case, the american factor will be decisive, i do not think that we need to think about some plan b, it can only be, let's say, agree with the need to negotiate, because otherwise we simply will not take such financial, industrial resources and ... weapons and

other things, i think that in the end those proposals, with whom zelenskyi will be in washington, they will be accepted as a whole, there will probably still be nuances, already work between our and the american military from the point of view of such, let's say, planning from the point of view of games that will show whether we will be able to perform certain, precisely military tasks, so i basically hope that our ideas will come. and they are based, among other things , on the successes shown by our defense forces in the kurdish direction, because before the kurdish operation both in washington and in europe they said that the war had turned a corner, that ukraine was better off will focus on defense, it is not able to generate forces and resources for active actions of an offensive nature. we have shown that we can do it, even in conditions where we do not receive. everything that

our partners promised us. recently, zelenskyi said that in fact only four brigades are complete, the new brigades are staffed, and most of them have not yet received weapons , equipment and other things from... the money that is allocated by the congress, so that it is not the process of making a decision and transferring this armament, equipment and ammunition to ukraine was delayed. mr. oleksandr, now there are a lot of peace plans offered to ukraine, including the chinese-brazilian peace plan. and the peace plan of olaf scholz, and these plans were already criticized by volodymyr zelenskyi, he spoke about the sino-brazilian peace, that this is peace that is initiated, or peace is this peace agreement initiated by moscow, or agreed with

moscow about the scholz peace plan, he said he didn't know what the peace plan was, but chancellor of germany during a meeting with the president of kazakhstan kasim jomart. kakayev did not agree with the thesis that russia cannot be defeated by military means, but he also speaks in favor of a peaceful settlement and speaks publicly about it. it is also clear to us that at the same time it is necessary to continue to explore the possibilities for the peace process. and it is obvious to me that this will not work in russia in the case in which it is currently waging this war, continuing to attack ukraine with great aggression. should all these peaceful plans. mr. oleksandr, reduce to to some single denominator, or all these plans should somehow be considered as options in the event that both the sino-brazilian peace and the peace from scholz in these projects and in these initiatives, representatives

of ukraine were not involved. well, you know, i have two papal ones on my computer, they are peace initiatives, and there, of course, is the plan of ukraine, the pope is there. which can actually be translated as bullshit, and what our partners, friends, friends, or distant partners offer, if it is not included in the vision of ukraine, but i want to emphasize that ukraine does not demand anything more than that the operation of international law has been restored, that is , there is no clause that we would like more than the parties, including the russian federation, agree to fulfill, if it... corresponds, this plan that is offered to us does not meet these parameters, then of course that we have to pay attention to it, but we have to continue the dialogue with our partners, the closest ones, who joined the first peace summit, so that they support our

progress, in this context, i consider the next peace summit, which is not will bring peace, that's for sure, but the most important thing is that it should increase the number of countries that hold. it is not known what, but of course we should be skeptical about it, because i do not know in history that a genocidal war ended with diplomacy and peace negotiations. i have not heard from russian perpetrators or propagandists that they are ready, at least to reduce the pace of this aggression. and unfortunately, we have not yet heard that there are such problems of an economic, social, political nature in the russian federation, someone told what he wants, which he has a plan that ukraine has, and it definitely does not coincide with our interests, with the interests and interests of a hundred americans. thank you, mr.

oleksandr, for the conversation, it was oleksandr hara, a diplomat, friends, we continue to work live on the espresso tv channel, as well as on our youtube and facebook platforms. for those who are currently watching us live on these platforms, please subscribe to our pages and also take part in our survey, today we ask you if you would move to the united states of america or the eu if there was an opportunity, yes, no, everything is quite simple on youtube, if you have a separate opinion, please write it in the comments, if you watch us on tv, pick up your smartphone or phone and vote on the numbers 0 800 211 381, if would you agree to move to... the states of america or the eu, if there was such an opportunity and no. 0800 211382. all calls to these numbers are free. vote, at the end of the program, we will sum up the results of this vote. next, we have ivan plachkov, chairman of the all-ukrainian council

of the energy assembly, former minister of fuel and energy of ukraine. mr. ivan, i congratulate you, thank you for joining our broadcast. congratulations, good health to everyone. mr. ivan, today in... did the russian occupiers strike the energy system of ukraine and suffer sumy region suffered another massive airstrike. the armed drone attacked alone. an object of the energy system, and this is reported by the sumy regional military administration, we are talking about the fact that energy objects were damaged by the shaheds, in particular in kanotop, vokhtyrsky, sumy area that is currently happening in the ukrainian energy industry as of september 17 , 2024, how would you characterize the state where we are now? well, the situation, we know that it is difficult, it is critical, and

when we say energy facilities, we, well, in recent times, as a rule, we mean power facilities, but we also have an oil and gas complex, a gas transportation system , gas distribution networks, but apart from the energy infrastructure, what happened today? some condition, well, in short, we know that we have damaged first after all, a large number of generating capacities, somewhere around 9 g, that is 9 00 mw, today ukraine consumes somewhere between 10-1200 mw, you can imagine, and where it has already been damaged, but we had a large reserve... during peaceful times and on the eve, well, in the 1990s, we had

55,000 gw of capacity, but on the eve of the war, it was somewhere around 25, 27,000 megawatts, and nine of them were damaged, so we have a large deficit of generating capacity, we know that we don't have the zaporozhye nuclear power plant, kokhov gas station, dnipro-g. damaged and almost all thermal power plants that worked and run on coal, they are all damaged, there is some amount left, here we see the equipment on the screens, but mainly these stations are destroyed by the war and the equipment, that is why there is a big deficit of generation, but we joined the european energy system on the eve of the war and... that is why we today we can import electricity

, for the last six months we have been importing at the level of 1.7 gw, well, now negotiations are going on and maybe we will be able to increase it to 2.2 gw by the beginning of the rainy season, so this is the situation in terms of generation, we mainly have mainly 90%, i think. are producing nuclear power plants, we have nine power units with a total capacity of 7.8 gigawatts, and there are also hydroelectric power plants, solar power plants when there is sun, and thermal power plants, the small amount that remains, which concerns the distribution networks and high-voltage networks of ukrenergo and the networks directly oblenergo, here... the situation is also very difficult, because the enemy's blows were directed, as a rule, at

high-voltage substations, where there are very powerful transformers, and a fairly large amount of equipment is also damaged, and of course on the oblenergo substation is already of such lower capacity, but we must remember that we have this distribution network. why, because we exported, we had the most powerful 750 kv lines in the world, but at the expense of that reserve. strength, despite the fact that today we consume 12-13 thousand megawatts, and the enemy does not manage

to achieve such a total blackout in ukraine, but we know that these are the last ones there, during the war, constant attacks on energy equipment and even official sources there the ministry of energy, the government, sometimes they say that destroyed, damaged more. energy workers have done a lot, they repair equipment at power plants, substations and so on, we receive incredible, incredible help, great help from our european partners and equipment, materials and funding in order for us to restore at least the part that

is necessary for passage autumn-winter maximum and more. i will remind her that we plan to increase imports, and everything depends on the passage of the winter maximum on two factors: the first main factor is anti-aircraft defense that will protect its energy facilities, and why? because all these buildings are of the first degree, the second degree, especially the third. degrees that, well, some kind of fantasy, confinement to the substation, which is on an area of ​​tens of hectares there, this, this, this, this is impossible, i do not know who promoted, designed, built these ideas, well, well, it is impossible to protect these things objects, some kind of structures, the only structure that we have built that protects is at

the chornobyl nuclear plant confiйment, which protects against radiation, no spore. not can protect such huge objects from missiles, that's why air defense, especially on the distribution devices of nuclear power plants, i mean the substations directly, which are close to the nuclear plants, er, which, thanks to which electricity is issued, etc. there was a strike... a missile about a month ago, when several power units of nuclear power plants stopped, these strikes were directly on er distribution devices, so this is very important, this is the first factor, er, third, second factor, there are three factor, i i'm sorry, the second is how

massive the strikes will be on the energy infrastructure as well, i... believe that the enemy is preparing for this, and i'll tell you why, i'm sure of it, they believe that this winter, which, which will be, we don't know what it will be like, it can be cold, very cold, or it can be warm, thank god that it will be warm, but we remember that for russians, energy is a weapon, and we remember we remember the first energy war, well... i remember this, maybe you remember, many do not remember, this is the year 98, when the gas was closed completely in ukraine and we had fuel oil reserves there for two days, few people know about it, then the war of 2005-6, when russia cut off gas to ukraine, when it was a cold winter, these are peaceful times, supposedly mutual relations and so

on, and the gas war is in its ninth year, and now it 's like a chance. i think they are preparing and we need to strengthen the air defense, well, mr. ivan, sir, and the third factor, i 'm finishing, i'm sorry, the third factor is what will be the winter, if the winter is warm, plus temperatures 0, + 5, there is +7 and so on, i i think that we will come, if it will be -15-20, then we need to prepare directly for us, consumers, citizens. countries to a situation where electricity will be cut off for such a period, or perhaps for a long time. you already mentioned the level of protection of energy facilities, the former, now former head of the ukrenergo company volodymyr kudrytskyi also spoke about it, in an interview with the public he described the situation that is currently developing in the energy sector,

let's listen to what he said. more than 60 objects. in ukrenergo is currently protected the so-called second-level protection, according to the classification of the general staff, these are large concrete reinforced concrete structures, the size of a five-story building, which mainly protect autotransformers, the most critical and vulnerable equipment, and i also said that such structures are built exclusively at ukrenergo substations, exclusively at ukrenergo substations, that means nowhere else. nowhere, not at any other facilities, they are unfortunately not built yet, and when i presented this report to the supervisory board, no comments. there are negative comments about it there was no report, mr. ivan, one more, very briefly, one more thing about what you said about

these substations that are located near the ukrainian as, or which ensure the activity of the ukrainian as, the politika publication writes that apparently the russians will strike at these substations, taking into account what kudrytskyi said and the situation that consists of... with these substations, because you mentioned that the russians had already hit these substations near the eu, in the west of ukraine, and the situation there was critical , i understand that this information was not widely disclosed, but this story was, what will happen if the russians hit these substations on the eu, and what to do with this defense, which kudrytsky is talking about, is the best defense after all - the patriot systems, well , look... his accusation that it was not

built . kudrytsky did not say whether these structures are effective or not. you can protect a transformer, but a substation is not only a transformer, it is switches, there are disconnectors, there, there is a lot of equipment, and therefore, even if there is a transformer. will not be damaged, then this transformer substation can be converted, i don't know what what, and it will, and it will not work and and and there for six months, eh, that's why, i say once again, air defense, even as far as buildings are concerned, we also heard the prime minister, somewhere here in his interview yu, he said, and we are of the third degree, which are the most these... these turtles or something, they, they are expensive, tens of billions of hryvnias went there, he says, we conserved because our international partners said that they

could not to be efficient, you can imagine how much money was spent on construction, and we waited until the partners said that they not effective, stop it, now we're going to preserve it, even though we said it two years ago, well, that's what it is, so i want to say once again, i'm sorry, i want to say once again that we have to prepare for the worst case scenario, everyone, it's a cold winter and there will be massive strikes, we will endure everything, there is absolutely no, maybe a total blackout, the probability is there, but, but it is not high, but we need to do everything. these consequences were reduced, thank you, we have to conclude, mr. ivan, thank you for the conversation, it was ivan plachkov, the chairman council of the all-ukrainian energy assembly,

former minister of fuel and energy, friends, let's look at the results of our interim survey, which survey we are conducting, would you come to the united states of america or the eu if you had the opportunity, so 25% yes, 75% - no. in september, there are 15% discounts on linux forte in potorozhnyk bam and oshchad pharmacies. there are discounts for mukaltin in september. 10% in podorozhnyk bam and oskad pharmacies. in september, there are discounts on nephrobam. 10% in pharmacies plantain bam and savings. in september, there are discounts on son of baam. 10% in podorozhnyk bam and oskad pharmacies. exclusively on
